Our mission at Working Wardrobes is to help clients find meaningful employment, and this includes the very deserving senior population. We are currently looking to employ workers age 55 and older through our Senior Community Service Employment Program (SCSEP), with jobs available across nonprofits and government offices throughout Orange County. SCSEP is a new program awarded to Working Wardrobes through an Orange County Contract and we’re honored to include this in our mission!

SCSEP is designed to help seniors who are on a fixed income and who have specific barriers to employment, such as health problems and disabilities, homelessness, language barriers, and long-term unemployment. Through the SCSEP network of 70 agencies in Orange County, the program offers services to help older workers – including veterans – address and overcome these barriers on their journey to a job.

Senior program participants are financially compensated for their volunteer services and gain training that develops marketable skills and bridges any gaps in their experience to help them find work and realize “The Power of a Paycheck”.

“We help them transition from unemployment to part-time or full-time employment, depending on what they’re looking for,” said Albert Stone, SCSEP Program Coordinator at Working Wardrobes. “Each client is unique with different needs. SCSEP is designed to address these needs on an individual basis. We conduct evaluations, develop a customized employment plan, determine the barriers, and do everything in our power to help them overcome these barriers.”
